If you're new here, please read the sidebar before posting. Check out this thread for more general info.

When people say shit that's stupid, pseudo-scientific, unnecessarily mean, racist, sexist, homophobic or generally bigoted they deserve to get told. This subreddit is dedicated to honouring those brave souls who take it upon themselves to do the telling.

Rules:

This is a meta subreddit (think /r/bestof), so please only post submissions that link to reddit threads. Submissions that point to external domains will be removed. Self posts are allowed as long as they are labelled [meta] and refer specifically to subreddit policy, self-posts that don't fit this description will be removed at the mod's discretion.

/r/YouGotTold is not for juvenile comebacks. Submissions can be humourous or serious, but bear in mind we're looking for actual Told moments. Not low-effort rejoinders like "Your Mom", "That's what she said", or other comments of that ilk.

Also, if it is not immediately clear, try to give an indication in your submission title as to who you think got told.

Context:

If the comment you're linking to requires some context, just add "?context=x" to the URL, where "x" is the number of previous comments you want displayed.

Non Participation Links:

YouGotTold is purely for hands-off appreciation. To prevent the brigading of linked threads, we urge all our submitters to use Non Participation links. To do this, when linking to a comment on another subreddit in your submission, replace "www.reddit.com" with "http://np.reddit.com."
